Here is a great early set of Red, White and Blue Bakelite Poker Chips in it's original quarter-sawn oak, or tiger oak caddy with telescoping carry handle. Also included is the original Japanned cover which is still in good condition (see photos).

This set probably dates to the mid 1920's + or - a few years. The chips are in excellent condition and some do show the fading expected with age. Each slot in the case holds 25 chips. The caddy is in excellent condition with evidence of a very good, very stable prior repair to the barely perceptible crack in one of the corners, which does not detract (see photo). Cover is very good, is quite stable, but does show the typical dust and storage wear - it could be recovered, but would you really want to do that? Absolutely no musty smells and never stored in a barn or basement. Pictured are all of the chips that came with the set when we purchased it, more bakelite chips can still be readily found. Caddy presents extremely well, and you will be sure to have one of the few of these caddys that are stillin existence.
